Well the writing style of the good ol’ Blues Guy is pretty aggressive but, as a beginner, I have to admit a part of me is skeptical too. I think PE can bring result, just because there are too many posters here and it would be insanely f*cked up if everybody was lying to himself and faking stats.
I think this is a healthy way of viewing a topic like PE. Always take everything with a grain of salt. We are not supposed to accept any theory blindly, we have to gauge and then try and put the work. The problem with PE is that patience is key. For example, I tried the newbie routine for 6months+ (starting slow and then adding a few more minutes of stretching, here and there, or a few more jelqs, etc), I followed everything that was written, warmup, restdays, etc. Missing no session. And I have had 0 gain, length or girth. Absolutely 0.
I am not saying PE is not working, I am saying I had no gain. So now I am getting into PE again to give it another try, but OF COURSE a part of me is skeptical (when an other part of me wants to hope I can get results). I read some guys have had results with the newbie routine in 2 weeks or 1 month+. I haven’t. Maybe it’s because of my technique, maybe of my body (hard to believe), maybe an other reason. So I know that my next trial brings me into at least a several months journey, with a LOT of hard work.
It would be very inspirational to see just ONE thread, where the poster is a “respected” member of the community, trusted by the other members who are sure this is genuine stats and pics. I don’t blame all the guys who will tell “yeah but I didn’t measure correctly or forgot to take a pic at the beginning of my PE career”, everybody has his reason, some also don’t want to put a dick pic on the internet, but I am sure there is at least one guy, genuine guy, who posted before/after pictures, with noticeable gains. We don’t need +5 inches gains to be inspired but just an obvious gain between two non-photoshoped pictures would be a great step for all the skeptics or the guys who lose faith along their PE route.
Of course, nobody owes anything. Of course some people will say “I don’t need to prove anything to you, just work and you will see, I know my stats are real”. It’s not about not believing you, it is about an actual proof that serves as an inspiration for hundreds of guys. It would be far easier mentally to work on a goal for months or years and hundreds+ of hours when we saw that it actually works. If I hit the gym as a skinny anorexic dude with chicken legs, I know for sure that if I put the work, I can become a monster in a few years. That’s motivating.
I tried to search all I could on this board but could not find a trusted member with genuine before/after pics with very obvious gains. I am sure there are a lot, can someone link it ?
During my researches, I saw a ton of this kind of progress pics but even when the guy claims +1,5 inch gain in girth and 2 inches length, it’s still very hard to see any difference, it could have been taken between a semi boner and a full erection. And this kind of gain should be extremely noticeable.
Some guys are also really thin/short compared to the stats they claim. I think we can all agree that there ARE a lot of fakes, obviously, like everywhere, especially in this kind of “I have the biggest” subject. But I am also sure there are a LOT of genuine mates out here. Again, please don’t take it as an attack, just if someone has a link towards real result pics, I would be happy, and I’m sure a lot of others would be too.
This question has probably been asked dozens of times, but I haven’t found the answer. I found a lot of progress reports but I am searching for at least one well known member with “huge” gains.
If I don’t find this motivation, I will do my 6months+ PE workout anyway and see the results by myself ;) If after 6 months of manual PE and then 6 months of manual + extender PE I still don’t see any gain, I will probably quit for good, considering it as a huge waste of time and effort. Even if it works, I’m sure everybody has some “down time” during their PE journey, and it would be good to look up to a motivational member who achieved verified great success.
Wow, that was a long post.
Thank you.
